About this property

2BR Cottage In Heart of Tampa's Trendy Urban Core

Two bedroom cottage-style guest house located in the center of one of Tampa's trendiest neighborhoods - Tampa Heights.
The cottage is located behind a main house on the property and includes full kitchen with cookware, utensils, plates/bowls/glasses, coffee maker, microwave, iron/board, smart T.V with Netflix, and WiFi.

The space
Our guest house is approximately 650 sq. ft. consisting of two bedrooms, one with a King size bed, and the second with a full size bed.

The location is literally minutes away from downtown Tampa, Raymond James stadium, Bush Gardens, Ybor City, Tampa's Channel District, and tons of trendy dining, bars, and shops. We're about 45 minutes drive to the Gulf beaches and 15 minutes from Tampa International airport.

There's a park directly across the street from the property with a playground, basketball courts, and softball fields.

Guest access
Guests enter via the double chain link fence on the North side of the main house. There's a pathway leading back to the private cottage.

Other things to note
-Our guest house is located in the back of the main house across the large back yard. Guests access the cottage via a side gate though to the back yard.
-Our strict no pets policy is due to a family member who stays with us frequently, who has severe and sensitive allergy to pet dander. Thanks for understanding.
Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a fenced private yard, and a refrigerator.

The check-in instructions were inadequate, and we had to contact the host when we arrived. We were supposed to clean our dishes, but there was no sponge. The shampoo dispenser in the shower did not work. The place was old, but clean.

Perfect for me and the kids. Less than 10 minute drive to the bucs stadium, where we went to see them play Philadelphia, Go Birds. The Wi-Fi wouldn't connect to our devices, the host got that taken care of the next day when he was able to.
